During the COVID-19 crisis, UMIACS researchers are using online resources to advance research in robotics, computational biology, cybersecurity, and more.
Aravind Srinivasan, Rita Colwell and Abhinav Bhatele are deploying the latest advances in artificial intelligence, machine learning, supercomputing and social science data against epidemic outbreaks.
The funding supports joint projects between faculty from the University of Maryland, College Park, and medical experts at the University of Maryland, Baltimore.
The goal of Shrivastava’s research is to teach AI systems how to recognize dynamic environments and react appropriately, without needing to be retrained on a large data set.
